Brentford midfielder Frank Onyeka has now admitted that he would like to play for Manchester United in future.

Brentford midfielder Frank Onyeka was asked by a Manchester United fan whilst on international duty whether he would like to move to Old Trafford in future. It is no surprise that the player has admitted that he would like to play for them.

“Yes of course, I want to play for Manchester United,” he told Punch Sports via .

Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to join them can be exciting for anyone. In addition, the Nigerian midfielder has struggled to secure regular opportunities at Brentford. He is not a regular starter for the West London outfit. Therefore, he should seek alternatives to get his career back on track with regular football.

Onyeka needs a move

It remains to be seen whether Manchester United or any other club are willing to provide him with an exit route this month. The African midfielder is currently away with his country for AFCON, and he will be hoping to play regularly when he returns.

If Brentford cannot provide him with that opportunity, they should be prepared to lose the player in the near future. The 28-year-old will add physicality and defensive steel in the middle of the park. Onyeka has the ability to succeed in the Premier League, and he could be a useful player in the right team.

Meanwhile, Manchester United could use a player with his skill set, but they will probably hope to sign someone with superior ability. It remains to be seen how the situation develops. The Nigerian midfielder will be desperate to get his career back on track, and Brentford will have to decide what to do when he returns to club football.

Meanwhile, Manchester United need more quality in the middle of the park, and it remains to be seen whether they can sign the right players before the January transfer window closes. The Red Devils have endured a disappointing season, and they will be desperate to bounce back strongly in the coming months.
